| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 Yes, and that has been written here above over the past several days. If you buy a modern Velodyne sub, you would need nothing else. It comes with a built in two way crossover and an amplifier dedicated to driving its subwoofer. It also comes w... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 There are pros and cons to any decision. Yes, take your time to find your own set of goals and the best methods for achieving them. It’s more fun that way, besides. | |
| TESTING DIFFERENT DECKS AND ARM COMBOS If for a publication, and if you are comparing A to B, then you ought to keep everything else constant, like you said. If it’s for yourself, then there are no rules. Because you own all the gear, and you would have a sense of how each piece contri... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 drbond, This thread can go on and on with different ones of us giving you different advice. To avoid further confusion, I suggest you read up on the options by searching on line. Terms you need to understand are "active crossover", "passive cross... | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output 2V output from a DAC is neither high nor low output, compared to most other DACs. It's typical. You don't need any gain at all downstream from a DAC with 2V output; that's more than enough signal voltage to drive any amplifier to full output and ... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 Drbond, the filters built into most subwoofer electronics are active and analog. Unless explicitly stated, the filters in an outboard electronic crossover are analog.The only passive filter mentioned so far is the idea of using a capacitor in seri... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 "So, with the Velodyne Digital Drive subwoofer, the entire line goes through the subwoofer from the pre-amplifier? And the Velodyne has both a high pass and low pass filter, which the high pass filter line then goes to an output line into the ampl... | |
| FR64 cartridge suggestions Speaking for myself, not ever having owned a 64fx, let alone heard one, I can only confirm that the 64S is the more prized version. Says nothing about SQ. For mating to Koetsu, which is how I use mine, the 64S is superb. I use the 18g Ortofon 9... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 drbond, There is no need to overthink this or to overspend, either. There is absolutely no need to change your preamplifier, either. The very simplest thing to do is to buy a high quality Velodyne or other reputable brand subwoofer. These typic... | |
| FR64 cartridge suggestions My impression after decades of headshells and arm wands is that while most headshells can be mated to most arm wands, it is not the case that they are all cross-compatible. It’s a bit trial and error with low risk of error. One deal killer is loca... | |
| Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2 No problemo either way. | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output If it's true that the internal SUTs on the Shindo phono sections are not as good as easily available outboard SUTs, then why spend money on the Shindo phono stages that have MC inputs, since in all cases the added gain is achieved via built-in SUT... | |
| Where did he go? Fusian, do you mean to say that Chakster is now active on VE? | |
| Anyone try the mpingo LP stabilizer from seller Clubwood on ebay? If the Great One scored with it, does the puck sound even better? | |
